pkg

pkg extends the core Go packages with missing or additional functionality built in. All packages correspond to the std go package name with an additional suffix of ext to avoid naming conflicts.

Motivation

This is a place to put common reusable code that is not quite a library but extends upon the core library, or it's failings.

Install

go get -u github.com/go-playground/pkg/v5

Highlights

• Generic Doubly Linked List.
• Result & Option types
• Generic Mutex and RWMutex.
• Bytes helper placeholders units eg. MB, MiB, GB, ...
• Detachable context.
• Retrier for helping with any fallible operation.
• Proper RFC3339Nano definition.
• unsafe []byte->string & string->[]byte helper functions.
• HTTP helper functions and constant placeholders.
• And much, much more.
